We live on 20 acres on Road to the Sea, which has a remote green sand beach at the end of the road (4 miles down from us). We call our slice of paradise, Honua Laa (a sacred place). Straight down to the coast is a beautiful black and green sand beach and a huge tide pool. Rent a four-wheel-drive to get there. You don’t need a 4WD to get to our place, but you will need a SUV or truck. Go slow the road is bumpy and rough in places. We are 1.2 miles from the highway. Off the grid. Rustic, but fun. If you are a Eco tourist or seeking adventure, you will love our spot! The silence is golden and the stars are amazing. Don't expect a hotel...this is upcountry glamorous camping. Shared bathroom (see photos) about a 100 feet away. Hipcamp kitchenette includes a propane single burner, ice chest, No fridge. No oven. We have an outdoor fire pit, if you like campfires!

The nearest grocery store is about 3 miles away. The Hele-On Bus is just 1.2 miles up the road. If you want to drive to the green sand beach at the end of our road, rent a 4 wheel drive.

Bring drinking water. There is plenty of coffee and tea in the kitchenette. Boil hot water in the kettle, put cone filter with a paper filter and ground coffee inside and on top of thermos. Drip.

Weekend Trip to 🌈 Rainbow’s End Farm & Homestead!

We enjoyed our comfy bed and deck perch in the jungle. The open kitchen was lovely to cook in. Wendy was away, but communication was excellent, and the caretakers were available, helpful and welcoming. We were driving a Honda Fit with very low clearance, so we drove the rocky road VERY slowly, and planned to come and go only once a day (we spent two nights). I would stay there again for sure, but only if I had a vehicle with higher clearance.

Weekend Trip to 🌈 Rainbow’s End Farm & Homestead!

We loved staying at Wendy’s! She was an incredibly generous host and communicated really well. As soon as we landed in Kona, she let us know that a volcano was fountaining, told us to head straight there, and had no issues with our late check-in as a result! Literally a once in a lifetime opportunity we would have missed if not for Wendy. The space itself was beautiful. Wendy’s property is gorgeous and she gave us a lovely tour of all the fruit trees she’s planted. The little cabin we stayed in was cozy and we loved having breakfast out in the deck. If we’re ever in the area again, we’d stay at Wendy’s in a heartbeat.

I had a fantastic two-night stay in the “SHE” shed, which featured a cool mood lighting! The area was incredibly peaceful for sleeping, and the cabin had an amazing cross breeze that ensured a comfortable night's rest. While there is air conditioning, it wasn't necessary. The views were spectacular, with beautiful sunrises, sunsets, and great opportunities for stargazing. Eddie was very accommodating; he even built a fire for me so I could make s'mores! His dogs, Coco and Ocho, were incredibly sweet—Coco kept watch outside my door all night. The shower offered hot water, and having a flushing toilet was definitely a plus. Eddie is knowledgeable about the area and can guide you in the right direction, no matter what journey you're on! I would definitely stay again. Thanks!

Weekend Trip to 🌈 Rainbow’s End Farm & Homestead!

Our stay on Wendy’s land was nothing short of magical—perfect for a weekend escape. This was my third time visiting, and I keep coming back every year when exploring the South Point area. The rustic yet charming cabin is a true gem, with a peaceful deck ideal for watching the sunrise. The fully stocked kitchen made cooking easy, and our group loved gathering in the open-air living room, soaking in the serene surroundings. Wendy is an incredible host—friendly, responsive, and always ensuring we feel at home. This year, we were delighted to find several upgrades, including stylish new living room furniture and a stunning semi-outdoor bathroom addition, a major improvement that made our stay even better. If you’re looking for a unique and immersive nature experience, this property is perfect. It offers a peaceful escape from everyday life while keeping you close to the area’s top spots—we highly recommend hiking to Green Sands! Wendy and her son are truly the best, and we can’t wait to return.

Great little cabin for nature’s lovers! We were cozy and private. You have everything you need and the balcony his a highlight. The only thing is the road to get there is very rough. I recommend a SUV for peace of mind, however we managed to do it with the rental Dodge Charger we had.
